Version 1.1.2 v1.1.2 #
A small update with one change that's easy to notice: where LineView shows your unread chat messages.
- One number on the chat icon. v1.1.2 The chat icon at the top of the board now shows all your unread messages added together, for everyone. Before, only some people saw a number there. Chat unread badges
- It steps aside while you're reading chat. v1.1.2 The number on the chat icon disappears while chat is open and on your screen, and comes back when it isn't. Chat unread badges
- Private-message numbers moved to the chat list. v1.1.2 A red number for a private message now appears next to that person's name in the chat list. You won't see it on their card on the board anymore, and that includes your own card. Chat unread badges
- Unread conversations rise to the top. v1.1.2 In the chat list, any conversation with unread messages moves up, just under Office (Everyone). Chat unread badges

Version 1.1.1 v1.1.1 #
A smaller update: one new button, and some tidying when chat is open beside the cards.
- Grab. v1.1.1 When a phone is ringing and nobody is answering it, hover over that card and click Grab. Your own desk phone rings, and when you answer it you're connected to the call. Grabbing a ringing call
- Set Status works with chat open. v1.1.1 Clicking Set Status on your own card used to open the status menu behind the chat, where it couldn't be used. It now opens fully on the card side of the window. Setting your status
- Chat no longer covers other things. v1.1.1 Pop-up notices also stay on the card side of the window, and the window opens tall enough to show every card.
- Transfer to voicemail. v1.1.1 Dragging XFER onto a coworker's card now also offers VM, next to Blind and ANNC. Let go on it and your caller goes straight to their voicemail. Transfer to voicemail

Version 1.1.0 v1.1.0 #
A feature update, not just a fix: chat moves into the main window, and the board now shows who is calling.

- Caller ID. v1.1.0 A card at the top of the board shows who is calling, amber while it rings and red once it's answered, then it fades away five seconds later. Caller ID
- Who's on the line. v1.1.0 Ringing and busy cards show the other person: ◄ for a call that came in, ► for a call that person made. Caller ID
- Parked calls remember their caller. v1.1.0 Hover a parked spot to see who is waiting, and the card of whoever picks it up shows the caller. Picking up a parked call
- The small alert card. v1.1.0 With LineView minimized, a small card pops up for a call or a new message. The small alert card
- Send to one or Send to several. v1.1.0 A switch above the contact list picks how clicking people works. Messaging several people
